Hammonton to Medford; Distance = 17.5 Miles; People Met = 13
I learned about ugly quilts today, which I will share in a podcast.
I forgot the memory card for my camera today and all the pictures come at the end. Except for when we walked through the pine barrens we were in populated areas, which once again meant using restrooms. Robin at the Mighty Joe Deli and Grill served us ice water before we left.
At the end of the day we stayed at the St. Peter’s Episcopal Church in Medford. Father Don Muller and his wife Lynn came to meet us and took us out to dinner at the Mexican Food Factory. Our waiter Brandon and trainee Maryann were quite entertaining. Photos are below.
After dinner we came back to the church where I learned about ugly quilts.

I’m a student in Vicki Nelson’s class and I’m looking for some insight into hiking the AT…I have a few questions below, and I would appreciate any additional insight you have…
What was it like to hike on the AT?
What was it like to camp on the AT?
How hard was it to hike for days at time?
What was your favorite part of the trail?
What were your favorite conditions to hike in?
What was your most interesting experience on the trail?
How complicated is the planning for the trail?
Thanks a lot,
Malcolm Scott
Thank you for all the questions, Malcolm. First a question for you: Do you really mean to ask about the AT, Appalachian Trail, or ADT, American Discovery Trail which we’ve been hiking for the past year? I’ll be glad to answer for either, but keep in mind the last time I thru-hiked the AT was in 1983.
